Many years ago, when I was in elementary school, I was delighted when I got an actual letter, addressed to me. It informed me that I was the winner of a raffle I had entered at the state fair! I had won land in Florida! I rushed to my mother, filled with dreams of all the money I could sell it for. She read it, and explained that I had to pay a bunch of money to claim my prize. I offered to reimburse my parents for the fees after I had cashed out. Then she explained that it would be worthless swamp land. Years later, I flew out of Orlando early one morning, and as I looked out the window…I saw acres of swamp land, between patches of housing, and laughed, thinking…that could have been mine!

Think how mad he’d be if she let him go through with it and then he found out it was a scam.

A Nigerian Prince with liver treats needs for me to prepay the taxes on my lottery prize.

One of my nephews used to suck the filling out of a Twinky with a straw.
I wonder if it’s anything like that.
Poor sad deflated Twinky.
